Subject: Flatten directory structure

All content files (*.txt, *.html, *.river) are now in /.
I did this to simplify the compilation step, and to make
linking easier.  I'm still thinking about whether I should
move the contents of js/, img/, and lua/ into /, or into
an 'assets' folder of some sort.  We'll see.

+Dimly remembered celebrity chefs shuffle \
+down the cold and darkened highways of the heart.  \
+They are the last personality left.  They are [the meek \
+who inherited the heart][meek], what was left of it.\
+
+Without food to cook in new or exciting ways \
+nor audience to gasp and cackle, the chefs \
+of the heart quietly waste away while staring \
+doe-eyed into now-empty Safeway windows \
+checking under the dusty produce shelves \
+for something they pray the [rats][] haven't found yet.
+
+Years ago, the economy of the heart boomed \
+and there was food everywhere.  Produce \
+piled high in pyramids of devotion, meat in \
+gilded glass cases opulent under fluorescence, \
+dairy which ran like the [mythical river][] toward \
+cereals hot and cold.  Under it all, thrumming \
+like great stone wheels on sand under a hot sun \
+near a river where reeds sang in the wind \
+the heart produced and gave reward for hard labor.
+
+No one knows when it all ended.  No one can say \
+if it was the heart that dried up or the heart's supply.  \
+Either way, food of the heart became scarcer and scarcer.  \
+People began dying, not of starvation \
+but of a certain facial expression that could only \
+be described as desperation.  Now \
+all that are left are the celebrity chefs, last bastion \
+of a once mighty empire of the [heart \
+are reduced to husks][heart] blown dry by wind.
